nine members of the public spoke. Four were in favor of creating an ordinance,
four were in opposition, and one suggested more community outreach.

prepare the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance.
3. On July 24, 2013, the City received four proposals to prepare the City's Historic
Preservation Ordinance from: GPA Consulting, Inc. for $30,000; Historic
Resources Group for $30,000; Urbana Preservation & Planning for $30,381; and
Evan Brooks Associates for $24,675.

4. On July 30, 2013, a staff review committee consisting of: Geoffrey Starns, AICP,
Planning Manager; Hesty Liu, AICP, Associate Planner; and Andrew Coyne,
Management Analyst reviewed the four proposals. The Committee determined that
the top two firms, Historic Resources Group and GPA Consulting, Inc., should be
interviewed.
5. On August 6, 2013, Historic Resources Group was interviewed by the review
committee.
6. August 8, 2013, and GPA Consulting was interviewed by the review committee.
ANALYSIS:
The City first explored the creation of an historic preservation program with the
completion of its Historic Context Statement and Historic Resources Survey (Survey) in
July of 2012. As part of the survey, 97 properties were identified as "potentially historic".
Under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) merely having a property
indentified as "potentially historic" subjects the property to environmental review.
Because no formal determination has been made regarding these properties historic
eligibility, they are not eligible for the benefits associated with historic properties (e.g.,
grants, use of the State Historic Building Code, etc.) but are still subject to
environmental review.
At the July 26, 2012 joint meeting of the City Council and Planning Commission, one of
the next steps discussed was the creation of an historic preservation ordinance.
However, there was no consensus amongst the members of the public that spoke at
that meeting as to whether or not an historic preservation ordinance should be created.
Because of the existing survey, staff determined that at an ordinance in some form is
necessary provide clarity to the rules and regulations and provide a process for a formal
determination of the properties already identified as potentially historic.
There are many misconceptions about historic preservation. Many people think that
being a designated historic structure prevents normal maintenance and repair while
others think it will prevent them from making any alterations. Historic preservation is
not about what you do to an historic property, but how you do it. Ordinances typically
allow the City to protect those properties significant in its history and provide for
standards to allow for appropriate alterations. An ordinance can also provide incentives
for the owners of historic properties to encourage their continued preservation.
The challenge of preparing an historic preservation ordinance is to tailor an ordinance
that meets the needs of Temple City and addresses the concerns of property owners
and the general public. In order to complete an historic preservation ordinance staff
released a Request for Proposal (RFP) to prepare the historic preservation ordinance.
The four proposals were evaluated on the following six criteria: 1) The experience of the
firm; 2) the qualifications of project management personnel; 3) the firm's understanding
of the project; 4) the product produced by the firm; 5) the firm's approach and
City Council

methodology; and 6) cost.
After evaluating the proposals using the six criteria discussed above, the review
committee determined that the GPA Consulting and Historic Resources Group
proposals were the most comprehensive and responsive of the four proposals. The
review committee then interviewed both GPA Consulting and Historic Resources Group.
After interviewing the two firms, the review committee unanimously agreed that GPA
Consulting was the best firm to prepare the historic preservation ordinance. GPA
Consulting, Inc. has experience in crafting historic preservation ordinances for cities
with similar issues to Temple City and works by drafting ordinances only after hearing
the issues and concerns of the public. Part of the work program includes additional
outreach to the community through two public workshops. Therefore, staff is
recommending the City Council approve a contract with GPA Consulting to prepare the
City's Historic Preservation Ordinance.
CONCLUSION:
The City Council is requested to approve a Consultant Services Agreement with GPA
Consulting, Inc. to prepare the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance in an amount not to
exceed $30,000. Creating an historic preservation ordinance will allow the City to
protect its historic places while providing clear rules and processes for those properties
identified in the survey as potentially historic.
FISCAL IMPACT:
On June 4, 2013, the City Council approved the Fiscal Year (FY) 2013-14 City Budget
which included a $30,000 appropriation for preparation of the City's Historic
Preservation Ordinance.

The success of a comprehensive preservation ordinance lies in the process of developing the
policy and working closely with the city staff and public. Community outreach and education is
imperative to a well-balanced, public -supported document that can be successfully carried out
into the future. Inherently, with policy documents that have the potential to affect the actual or
perceived rights of property owners, the process of developing and passing those documents
often comes with public concern or fear. Therefore, GPA has developed a scope of work that

Creation of an Historic Preservation Ordinance
July 8, 2013
INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
In 2012 the City conducted an Historic Resources Survey and prepared an Historic Context
Statement.. The survey identified approximately 100 properties that are eligible for designation
in one form or another. The City is now looking to create an historic preservation program. The
City of Temple City is seeking proposals from experienced historic preservation consulting firms
that are interested in preparing an historic preservation ordinance.
Temple City ("City's is centrally located in the west San Gabriel Valley approximately five miles
southeast of Pasadena and 13 miles east of downtown Los Angeles. The City is approximately
3.85 square miles and is surrounded by the cities of Arcadia, San Gabriel, EI Monte, Rosemead,
and unincorporated portions of Los Angeles County. The 2010 U.S. Census Bureau indicates a
total population of 35,558. Temple City is predominantly a residential community with over
10,000 residential parcels.
PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES
The City recently celebrated its 50th birthday as an incorporated city. The City Council and city
manager have set out an ambitious work plan for the City's next 50 years. The City is looking to
the future and embracing innovative concepts such as sustainability and complete streets, while
protecting the City's history and character. This project is instrumental in the overall protection
of the City's historic and character. The City is looking for a forward thinking consultant who can
provide innovative solutions to the preservation of Temple City's historic places. "Community' is
important to the City and the ideal consultant or consulting team should be able to actively
engage the public in a variety of ways to get input on critical issues, keep them updated on the
process, and to educate them on issues and concepts. The City also expects documents to be
prepared in a format that is clear, concise, and easy to read.
SCOPE OF WORK
The City is requesting that the consulting team create an historic preservation ordinance. The
following describes specific components that should be included in the scope of work.
However, the City is open to suggestions other than those listed here, which would be of value
to producing an ordinance that reflects Temple City's unique nature.

SYNOPSIS
G PIA
It is our understanding that the City of Temple City (City) is seeking a qualified historic
preservation consulting team to prepare a historic preservation ordinance for the City. Currently,
the City does not have any historic preservation mechanisms in place such as a historic
preservation ordinance, criteria for designation, or a historic preservation element as part of its
General Plan. However, the City does have an active historical society, which maintains a
historic museum and archives of historical photographs and other documents relating to the
history of Temple City.
In 2012, the City conducted a historic resources survey, whereby approximately 100 buildings
were identified as historically significant. The survey covered the entire city, including all
properties constructed prior to 1970. Surveyors identified properties that appeared eligible for
individual designation as landmarks or points of interest, as well as geographically -definable
areas that appeared eligible for designation as Historic Districts or Conservation Areas. All
identified properties were evaluated for potential listing in the National Register of Historic
Places, the California Register of Historical Resources, and for local listing. In addition to the
survey, the City had a historic context statement prepared for the city to provide a framework
for resource identification and evaluation in the future. The Survey Report recommended that
the City consider establishing a local historic preservation ordinance that would be structured to
address the particular needs of Temple City. Specifically, the report recommended that the
ordinance include:
• A provision for the establishment of a local historic commission, including the powers and
responsibilities assigned to that commission
• A provision for the establishment of a local inventory of historic properties
• A process for the designation of individual landmarks, points of interest and historic
districts
• Criteria used to evaluate potential historic properties, consistent with the criteria of the
California Register of Historical Resources
• A process of design review for historic properties, including a description of alterations
requiring review, and an appeals process
• A provision for economic hardship in the case that designation or denial of a building
permit would cause extreme hardship
• A requirement that property owners maintain designated resources, including guidelines
for appropriate treatments of historic materials and features
• A provision outlining incentives for designated historic resources
The City of Temple City is primarily a city of residential neighborhoods with commercial
development clustered along major transportation corridors. The city's earliest development
dates to the first quarter of the 20th century, when modest bungalows and simple farm houses
sprouted amidst the largely agricultural San Gabriel Valley. Today, Craftsman bungalows from
the 1020s share the block with revival -style houses from the 1930s, postwar tract homes from the
1950s and 1960s, as well as more recent single-family houses. Apartment and condominium
buildings from the 1970s and later are clustered along arterial streets such as Rosemead and
Temple City boulevards. The city's commercial areas include a combination of modest
storefronts from the 1920s to 1950s and more contemporary development, including gas stations,

fast-food restaurants and shopping centers. Most of the institutional buildings date from the post-
war period. Collectively, the architectural resources throughout the city represent several
development patterns. The city's population (2010) is 35,558.
The City of Temple City recently celebrated its 50th anniversary as an incorporated city, and as
such has prepared an ambitious work plan for the next 50 years. The City has an interest in
preserving the historic character of its diverse neighborhoods as part of that Work Plan and is
seeking the assistance of a historic preservation consulting firm to provide innovative solutions to
the preservation of Temple City's historic places and to prepare a historic preservation
ordinance. The City has a particular interest in coordinating its policy-making efforts with the
public and persons with an interest in preserving the city's historic resource. The City expects the
documents to be clear, concise, and easy to read.
To assist the City of Temple City with their interest in preserving historic resources within their city,
GPA brings a broad toolkit of experience and ideas to prepare a historic preservation
ordinance, including working with the planning department and public to identify the city's
needs, breaking down the necessary steps into a logical and comprehensive approach, taking
the concern and fear out of the process of new policy making by conducting workshops for the
public and decision makers, and making all information available to the public during the
ordinance preparation process.
GPA has a variety of experience in working with local governments to establish local
preservation policy, including preparing Work Plans, Historic Resources Elements of the General
Plan, conducting city-wide surveys, and preparing historic ordinances. When working with local
governments on developing historic preservation ordinances, GPA utilizes the California Office of
Historic Preservation Department of Parks and Recreation Technical Assistance Series 14: Drafting
Effective Historic Preservation Ordinances as a guide.

SCOPE OF WORK
GIPIA
The success of a comprehensive preservation ordinance lies in the process of developing the
policy and working closely with the city staff and public. Community outreach and education is
imperative to a well-balanced, public -supported document that can be successfully carried out
into the future. Inherently, with policy documents that have the potential to affect the actual or
perceived rights of property owners, the process of developing and passing those documents
often comes with public concern or fear. Therefore, GPA has developed a scope of work that
